History Trivia / SpiderManAcrossTheSpiderVerse

** Both Spider-Byte’s Funko Pop! figurine and official PVC figure show a completely different design compared to the final design in the movie, which more closely resembles her suit from the comics. Both figurines feature a blue and red [[TronLines circuitry-inspired]] suit, long robotic arms and a completely different hairstyle. In the final film, her design has been completely reinvented, with a new purple color scheme and her hair tied back into buns. The fact that this design made it into the official merchandise suggests that this design was scrapped late into the movie’s development.

** [[ZigZaggedTrope Zig-Zagged]] with the opening scene where Gwen is fighting the Vulture. The trailers had Gwen quip that "Sorry, the only Italian I know is from Mario Kart". This line is not in one of the cuts, while it was retained in the other.

** While fighting the Vulture at the beginning, the trailers had Gwen quip that "Sorry, the only Italian I know is from Mario Kart". This trope is downplayed since there are [[ReCut two cuts of this film that were released in theaters]], with this line being not present in one, while it was retained in the other.

** While fighting the Vulture at the beginning, the trailers had Gwen quip that "Sorry, the only Italian I know is from Mario Kart". This line was removed from the film.

* DevelopmentGag: [[https://twitter.com/DanSlott/status/1664984990638039044 As mentioned by comic writer Dan Slott,]] the design that became ComicBook/SpiderPunk was original intended for Spider-UK, but was revamped into a separate character, in the process making him American rather than British. In this film, Spider-Punk is British and takes aspects from Spider-UK's role in the ''ComicBook/SpiderVerse'' comic story.

In this film, Spider-Punk is British and takes aspects from Spider-UK's role in the ''ComicBook/SpiderVerse'' comic story.

* FlipFlopOfGod: Phil Lord said in direct messages that Hobie is 15 (which would justify the apparent love triangle amongst him, Gwen, and Miles), but other crew members said he was 19-20.

** The [[ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan Superior Spider-Man]] was one of the many Spider-People chasing Miles in the trailers; however, in the final movie, he is replaced with a random, traditional Spider-Man

* MissingTrailerScene: The teasers showing the scene of Gwen visiting Miles' room had some different versions, such as Miles hiding even more stuff when Gwen arrives, including floating underwear, and becoming even more embarrassed at her seeing his drawings.

* BannedInChina: The film was banned in the Middle East over a brief Transgender flag in the background of one scene.

* EarlyDraftTieIn: Some of TheMerch still has the "Part One" in the film's title from back when the film and ''Beyond the Spider-Verse'' were planned to be a [[MovieMultipack two-parter]], before Sony decided to make them separate films.

* ActorSharedBackground: In the Japanese dub, Spider-Punk is voiced by Creator/SubaruKimura, who is also a professional singer and musician by his own right. The only difference is that, while the former is a punk rocker, the latter sings rap.

* RefittedForSequel: The MythologyGag line "The power of the multiverse, in the palm of my hand..." spoken by Spot in this movie was originally said by Liv Octavis in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' before she jumps into the supercollider, but that scene was cut from the final movie.

** Everybody involved in the film was highly approving of Preston Mutanga's recreation of the trailer in 3D LEGO. So much so that they [[PromotedFanboy hired him to animate some shots on Earth-13122, the universe made entirely out of LEGO]]. We should also mention that Preston was ''fourteen years old'' at the time of this writing.

* IKnewIt:
** Most have theorized that [[ComicBook/SpiderMan2099 Miguel O'Hara]] would play a larger role in the sequel thanks to TheStinger at the end of the first film, which the preview confirms.
** A number of fans have theorized that The Spot would appear as a villain in the film, due to how potentially cool his ability to summon portals out of his body would be in the film. Sure enough, [[https://twitter.com/spiderverse/status/1536324894216146945?s=21 the film's Twitter account would confirm that this would be the case]].
** [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/28615194?view_full_work=true A fanfic for]] ''Into the Spider-Verse'' on Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn featured Peter B. Parker as the father of ComicBook/SpiderGirl Mayday Parker. Despite the story being otherwise [[{{Jossed}} incompatible with the movie's canon]], ''Across'' '''has''' identified Peter B's daughter as Mayday rather than [[ComicBook/RenewYourVows Anna-May]].
** When the film was announced, [[Creator/NicolasCage Spider-Man Noir]], [[Creator/KimikoGlenn Peni]] and [[Creator/JohnMulaney Spider-Ham]] were all conspicuously absent from any cast lists, which led to some hoping and predicting that ''Across'' would nevertheless setup the characters for a return in ''Beyond''. [[spoiler:Peni has a brief cameo partway through, with both her clothing and mech now being comic-accurate, and ''all three'' are part of Gwen's Spider-Society alongside the Indian Spider-Man, Peter B. Parker, Mayday, Spider-Byte, and Spider-Punk at the end of the film.]]

* RealLifeRelative: In the Norwegian dub, Peter B. Parker and Mary Jane Watson are voiced by Anders Bye and Siri Nilsen, who are married in real life.

** The film initially had a post-credits scene starring the Spot. It was scrapped because the filmmakers felt it ruined the tone of the main movie's cliffhanger and, at that point in production, it would have been a confusing OrphanedReference to an earlier scene that they already cut ([[spoiler:the earlier scene would have seen the Spot go to a BadGuyBar and be relentlessly mocked, with the post-credits scene having him return to curbstomp everyone with his upgraded powers]]).

** Speaking of ''Beyond'', Sony removed its release date from its ''Spider-Verse'' social media accounts on June 6, 2023, the day that the Screen Actors Guild voted to strike. Given that some of the actors, many of whom are SAG members, haven't recorded dialogue for the film yet, a change in release date might be on the horizon.
